Freeware poker of the more traditional sort. So far includes 7-card stud, 7-card stud with twos wild, 7-card stud with twos and threes wild, and 5-card stud. Choose 2 to 7 players.

Everyone starts with $1000, and anyone who drops below $100 is out of the game. The objective is to be the last player standing (or sitting.) MBroPoker uses old "Vegas" rules; so the house takes 10% of the pot up to $4. This guarantees that eventually it'll come down to two players, and finally one. If you are that one, you can make it to the Hall of Fame; the ten quickest people to be the last player remaining.

I've created this application just because i got bored at the"Text Messages (0)"label for the SMS plugin on my homescreen.

Features:- change the plugin label to your choice (when there is no unread sms) - plugin's label will show the number of unread sms. it will also show the last received unread sms' first 20 characters and the sender's name.

TIP: if you dont want any label shown when there is no unread sms, just type in a space or " "The 'new' label will only appear after your have received AND read a new sms after executing the application and saving your new label. You can also do a softreset after saving your new label.

"All those who heard it marveled at those things which were told them by the shepherds. --Luke 2:18

Elmer Kline, a bakery manager in 1921, was given the job of naming the company's new loaf of bread. As he struggled to come up with something "catchy," he found his answer in an unlikely place. While visiting the grounds of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, he stopped to watch the International Balloon Festival.

Later he described the sight of the beautiful hot-air balloons launching into the Indiana sky as one of "awe and wonderment." The thought stuck, and he called the new product Wonder Bread. To this day, the packaging for Wonder Bread is brightened by colorful balloons.

Wonder, however, is a word that evokes something more significant than a loaf of bread or hot-air balloons. One dictionary defines wonder as "a cause of astonishment or admiration." It's a word that captures the experience of all the people surrounding the events of the coming of Jesus into the world--the angels, Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, and all the people they told. Luke said they "marveled" (2:18). For all of them, trying to understand the birth of Christ was an exercise in wonder.

As we celebrate Christmas, may we be filled with wonder at His love and His coming! --Bill Crowder

Have you felt the joy of the shepherds,Who were first to behold the sightOf that holy Child of MaryOn that wonderful Christmas night? --Brill

Would you like to create and sell your own phonethemes?well, you can - phonethemes has created the 'PhoneThemes Studio' toolkit'. Artists and designers can use this Toolkit to create stunning multimedia products in a new format. PhoneThemes provides copyright holders access to the rapidly expanding market of mobile device personalisation using their existing assets.

PhoneThemes back office system infrastructure allows copyright holders peace of mind by protecting assets and guaranteeing appropriate payment every time a phonetheme is provisioned.

Once you become an approved author you can create phonethemes for any platform supported by Phonethemes:

The toolkit will publish the themes you create for your own device play and test on. When you're ready to begin selling your themes the toolkit will upload then directly into our server, creating all the necessary animated preview images and allow you to set categories, prices and put in a description. Themes are listed both on the Internet and mobile portal and will also be available for sale via SMS in applicable countries.

To become an approved author please read the following Author's acreement and then contact us by clicking here.

Included in the cab file are:1. HardReset.exe - A hard reset clears the RAM and returns the device to factory conditions. This implies that after a hard reset you lose all the data that is on your device and the device is just as it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. All programs installed, data entered, settings adjusted on the device will be lost and only Windows Mobile and other applications that come with an original installed device will remain. This can become useful if your system is severely bogged down and soft resets do not help any more.

2. PowerOff.exe - turns off your device.

3. SoftReset.exe - A soft reset of your device is like rebooting a desktop; it clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. It restarts the operating system and preserves any saved data, but you will lose any unsaved data. This feature is useful when a device hangs, is bogged down or when a program is operating strangely. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs.

YaRPNcalc is an RPN calculator written in C# targeting the .NET Compact Framework. t's designed for the limited screen size of Pocket PCs. YaRPNcalc is freeware.Why another RPN calculator?

Two reasons:

* I wanted an RPN calculator for my Pocket PC with big buttons, big enough to use the calculator with the fingers instead of the stylus. * I wanted to learn about .NET Compact Framework development as well as getting more fluent in C#.

Snooze is an alarm program I've been working on for a while. - rogueqd of MODACO

It has multiple recurring alarms that play either .wav or .mp3 files. It can also change the phone profile or run an application of your choosing.

Snooze is designed for QVGA WM5 smartphones, it should work on any QVGA WM5 device although there is no touch screen support. It may work on WM2003, but I have not tested this.

I've been using Snooze for a few months now, so there shouldn't be any major bugs. There are a few minor quirks that you may or may not notice. One is that you must unlock your phone to dismiss or snooze an alarm, cest la vie.

I've tried to make the interface intuitive, so I won't write a whole bunch of instructions. Mp3 or wav files must be in the application directory, or \My Documents\ or \My Documents\My Music\. If you have Snooze installed to a storage card, they can also be in either of those two folders on the storage card.

Snooze requires .NET CF 2.0 to be installed on the phone. I've only tested this on my i-mate SP5, so comments about performance on other phones would be appreciated.

Snooze uses FMOD 3.75 to play mp3 files, fmodce.dll for WM5 is included in the cab, for other WM versions you'll need to get the correct fmodce.dll from http://www.fmod.org

This the first port of the Game Crimson Fields for Pocket PCs and SmartPhones. It can be used on QVGA and on VGA devices.There is a port for Desktop Windows too and it contains a level editor.Known problem: You have to start the game in portrait display mode, but the game has a built-in landscape mode. The SmartPhone version is only playable in english language.

It's mainly made because the original entry doesn't work on my P525, but it might be useful for others, too. It should also work fine with WM2003(SE), though I haven't tested it.

Features:- New entry "Message+" in "New" menu- The original "Message" entry is deactivated, but can be activated in the settings (WM2003, rider in menu entries) or registry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Extensions\NewMenu\ {1D210285-ABE7-11d2-8442-0000F87A584A}\Enabled).- Can be invoked directly in the start menu or tools like PocketPlus, iLauncher, ... (\Windows\MortNewMsg.exe, if the link isn't created proberly)- Choosable account/service (SMS is default if available otherwise the first entry)- Ability to filter by groups, recipent types (cell phones, all phone number, eMail addresses) and recipent name (search over "Show as" field)- Multiple recipents possible (unselect previous selection by tapping again if you tapped the wrong one!)- Search field has focus after start; (de)selection in listbox is possible with fire button - so it's easy to use with keyboards (though it's better to switch to "abc" mode on P525)- Activates message area in the system's dialog, so no tab or tapping is required

However, there might be some troubles (performance/memory usage) if there are very many contacts.

The screenshot's from the German version, but the attachment's in English.There'll be no other translations, because that'd be a bit complicated in this case.

DontForget is easy-to-use and fully configurable missed events notifier for Windows Mobile 2005 based Smartphones. But it is not just an extension for Windows Mobile operating system which should already be present and preinstalled. Except that DontForget will repeatedly inform you about missed events by sound, vibration, notification window or by LED and you will never forget about urgent SMS or important call, you also can customize its behaviour completely, in certain profile, in Flight-mode or in preset time period.E.g. you can switch all notifications off at a time when you are usually sleeping. DontForget also can automatically switch your device to certain profile, switch to the Flight-mode or switch the device completelly off in given time of deactivation.Fi­nally you also can handle (slow down or completelly disable) standard LED blinking also on devices (like HTC clones) where the LEDs are controled on hardware level. And DontForget is distributed as a freeware and is up to you if you will spend a short time by reading (and opening) any advertisement here or contribute some small money directly via PayPal system for special school for blind children.

System requirements• Only Windows Mobile 2005 Smartphone edition operating system and higher is supported. You may install it on WM2003(SE) powered device but some features will not work or will not work correctly – especially missed events notifications. Support for these platforms is not planned nor in the future. The same hold for PocketPC devices with WM2005 – some features may not work correctly and this version of the DontForget is not indented for PPC. Full featured version for PocketPC devices should probably be available during the year 2007.• By default QVGA (320×240) resolution is supported including landscape oriented displays (240×320) or square-shaped displays e.g. 240×240 (Pic.1). Also lower resolutions are supported e.g. 176×220 but you have to scroll a bit more to see whole text.• .NET Compact Framework 1.0 must be installed. This should already be present in all WM2005 powered smartphones and you don't need to install it.

nstallation and UpdatesStandard CAB installer is available. Download the CAB-installer from this pages to your PC. Copy CAB-installer to any location to your mobile device (e.g. via ActiveSync) and run CAB-installer on your device and follow instalation's in­structions. Installation to the storage card is also supported. The same procedure holds for updates. When installed, run administration utility „DontForget Admin“ in order to set-up all parameters and features first. The link to it you can find in „Start“ menu after successful installation. More info you can find in download section.

Multilanguage support (localization) – available languagesDontForget, starting from version 2, comes with a new localization strategy. Now the new language version can be added without any code changes just by creating and adding new *.lang file. Czech and English language is implemented by the program itself and these languages are always present. There is also no need for special *.lang files for these internal languages.Curren­tly there are several other languages available (bundled in LanguagePacks): German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Polish, Russian and Slovakian. The number of languages available can change. You also may create new localization for your native language if you want to share it with other DontForget users in your country. Please send me an e-mail in this case and I will provide you with all necessary files and infos for such translation. All languages as LanguagePacks you can find and download in the Download section. When installed, all available languages will appear in the DontForget's Admin menu „Language“ automatically – according to available *.lang files in your installation folder (Pic.2). After DontForget installation English language is always selected by default. To change the language use Admin's menu item „Language“.

Program description – how it worksDontForget consists of two parts – modules. First is „DontForget Admin.exe“ (Admin for short), which serves as a preferences center. Everything, every feature of the DontForget can be set in this Admin module. A link to the Admin (which is automatically created during installation) you can find in Start menu. Admin must be run (at least once) before you start using DontForget main application to setup all parameters and can be used later any time you want to change the behaviour of the program.Second part is „DontForget.exe“ called also main application. This module is running in the background (windowless) and monitors all missed events and notifies you about them. A shortcut to it is automatically created during installation and added to the \Windows\StartUp folder to ensure DontForget will start automatically after reboot.

Program features setup – Admin (DontForgetAd­min.exe)

As stated this Admin module must be run (at least once) before you start using DontForget main application to setup all parameters. Once the Admin is running main module is suspended and activated (run) again when the Admin is closed. It means you will not be notified about missed events and also LED blinking will return to original state when the Admin is active. Main module will be activated automatically when the Admin is closed – except of the choice „Terminate service“ from the Admin's menu.Admin can be run from the Start menu by choosing „DontForget Admin“ shortcut. The user interface of the Admin is divided in few parts for better navigation. You can use up/down cursor keys to navigate between options. All options will become stepwise visible when you are moving up or down over them. Relative position is shown on the right scroller.

Horizontal scroll mode (left/right movements)Beside vertical movements between options allows DontForget also horizontal movements which is very useful if you want to read text which cannot be not fully displayed on display – longer and more accurate item's label can be used now. Of course, horizontal movement is not possible on items which are using left/right keys as a common mechanism for internal movements inside the item e.g. on text boxes, where the left/right key advances to the next or previous character. But… DontForget allows you simply switch to so-called scroll-mode by pressing and holding the „0“(zero) key until the scroll-mode is activated which is indicated by the green S-like icon on the tray (Pic.3). Next time you press (and hold) „0“ key the scroll-mode is turned off. Once the scroll-mode is active you can use left/right keys without any restriction and move the content of the window even when some text-box is active. This can be useful if you want to read immediatelly some very long label e.g. above the text-box currently activated. Warning: scroll-mode remains active until you switch it off by 0-key or until Admin program is closed. During scroll-mode are left and right keys exclusive dedicated to DontForgetAdmin i.e. also in other applications the left/right keys are not working as expected – keys are exclusively „used“ by DontForgetAdmin.

And now I would like to describe all possibilities and features including some hints and tips.

Monitored eventsIn this part you can set-up which missed events should be monitored a reported. You can choose if you want to be notified about missed calls, unread SMS or MMS, missed reminders (calendar entries or tasks) or unread e-mails including push-mails. Support for voicemail will be added in the next release version.

Reminder settings• Via option „Sound to play“ you can set the path to the sound file you want to play as a notification. Only WAV sound format is supported. Just activate the text-box and press Enter (accept button) or use Menu option „Select Sound…“. If you prefer to not play a sound during the reminder leave the „Sound to play“ box completelly empty. You can also use attached trolley.wav sound file as a sound if you want.Tips: in the case you encounter a problem with playing wav files try to modify/convert it as follows: 8-bit, Mono, 22kHz and PCM audio format. For conversions you can use Windows PC application called „Sound recorder“.• In „Repeat interval“ option you can set the time between notifications in minutes. E.g. value equals to 5 means you will be notified each 5 minute until some missed events exists. By selection 0(Off) you can switch off all notifications – which is also indicated by red-exclamation-mark icon on the tray.Note: Even you select 0(Off) you will be notified via LED if this option is enabled (see below).• „Limit repetition rate“ option allows you to limit notification count. Once set to e.g. 6 DontForget will stop notify you about missed events after 6th notification. Notification is automaticaly renewed when the number of missed events is changed e.g. new missed call detected. And don't forget you will still be notified via LED.• „Show notification window“ option determines whether DontForget will show the window with notification details during notification (Pic.4). Most users prefer to not show any window because they have SMS or e-mail count shown on their homescreen.• With the „Enable vibration“ option you can enable or disable vibrations during notification. Vibration will be used only in the case, you set this option to on and your currently active profile is using vibration for incomming calls as well (vibration is switched on). If you want to use just vibration, without any sound, you can leave the box „Sound to play“ in the Admin empty.• „Enable LED alert“ enables LED alert for notification. If switched on, DontForget will remind you by accelerated blinking (ca. 1 per 1.5 second) of the main LED-light of your device (instead of default ca. 1 per 3 seconds). LED alert is completely separated from other options for notification (e.g. by sound) and LED alert is immediatelly activated (30 seconds as a max.) after some missed event is detected.• Note about sound volume:DontForget will play selected sound (on reminders) using the same volume level you have set for „Ring volume“ in the device's Settings i.e. according to setting in: Settings->Profiles->[YourCurrentPro­file]->Ring volume , it means according to your currently selected profile. If the current profile has „Ring volume“ set to „Off“ (E.g. Silent profile) – DontForget will not play any sound.

Deaktivation settingsUnder some circumstances can be convenient to deactivate missed events notifications – e.g. in the night or during the meeting or so. In this part you can set all options for automatic deactivation of the DontForget. Just keep in mind, you will still be notified by LED even the DontForget is deactivated. If the status icon is enabled (see below) DontForget shows red-exclamation-mark icon on the tray – indicating DontForget is deactivated. DontForget is again automatically re-activated when no reason (defined by options set) for deactivation is valid e.g. current time is out of the time period set.• Option „Deactivate in Flight mode“. DontForget is automatically deactivated if the device is switched to the Fligh-mode.• Option „Deactivate in following profile“. DontForget is automatically deactivated if the device is switched in to the selected profile which you can choose as a sub-option.• Option „Deactivate in following time“. DontForget is automatically deactivated within time interval you set e.g. during the night. DontForget is automaticaly deactivated according your settings and again re-activated automaticaly when the interval elapses. The period must be set in format „from-to“ i.e. HH:MM – HH:MM e.g. „22:30–8:00“ which means: DontForget will be automatically deactivated in 22:30 and re-activated again in 8:00. 24hours time format is used. If this option is set and enabled you also can set an action which should be automatically performed when time deactivation begins i.e. on time „from“ (when deactivation is initiated) e.g. 22:30 in our example.• Sub-option „Switch off device“. Device is automatically switched off in deactivation time i.e. 22:30 according to our example• Sub-option „Switch to Flight-mode“. Device is automatically switched to the Flight-mode in deactivation time i.e. 22:30 according to our example! For both option above holds following scenario: DontForget will try to switch the device off or switch to Flight-mode. If there is no currently active call, confirmation window with notification text is shown (display light is automatically switched on and you can hear a beep) a count-down will begin (Pic.5). You have 30 seconds to cancel this action (e.g. switching device off) by selecting Cancel (or select OK if you want to perform the action immediately). Otherwise (when 30 second is over) the action will be automatically performed. This gives you an opportunity to interrupt this automatic transaction.But if there is an active call (you are talking with someone) DontForget is deactivated but the action is postponed – repeatedly by 1 minute. Each minute DontForget will again try to do the action(e.g. switching device off) checking you are finished with the call. This will repeat 15 times as a maximum. If there is still an active call after this 15 minutes delay DontForget will ignore/skip the action – action will not be performed.• Sub-option „Switch to following profile“. Device is automatically switched to selected profile in deactivation time i.e. 22:30 according to our example regardless of active call

General• Option „Show state icon“ enables/disables showing the information icon on the tray (except of home-screen) so you can check application's state very quickly (Pic.7). When this option is switched on DontForget will distinguish between following cases: icon not shown = DontForget.exe is not running, icon green exclamation-mark shown = running and notification is active, icon red exclamation-mark shown = running but notification is not active, currently deactivated.• Option „Slow down LED blinking frequency“. Using this option you can change the behaviour of the main LED of your device. Now you have a posibility to slow down or completelly disable standard LED blinking even on some devices (like HTC clones) where the LED-blinking cannot be simply and programmaticaly changed because the LEDs are controled on hardware level. By default your device is blinking ca. once per 3 seconds. DontForget now comes with alternative method how to control at least the main LED and gives you a possibility to control this behaviour so you can change or disable the green-light LED blinking. You can use it also to make the LED blinking on missed events (which is once per 1,5 second) more expressive. This option is indepedent from the rest of DontForget's set­tings even when DontForget is deactivated (but running). Choose one of predefined blinking rates (4–20 seconds) or choose „0(off)“ to switch the LED-blinking completely off. The setting becomes active when the Admin is closed and the main application is started up (which is done automatically).

Admin's menu entriesMenu item „Select sound can be used as an alternative to set the path to the sound file you want to play as a notification. With menu item "Test…“ you can test the sound of the reminder, vibration or LED alert. This will always replay the sound using middle-level volume regardless of the profile set and also vibration are used, if the option „Vibration“ was set, regardless of the profile. Choose „Exit without saving“ to exit administration program ignoring all changes made. Menu item „Terminate service“ completelly terminates DontForget application (both Admin and the main application) which is useful and recomended before an update (some DLLs can be locked) (Pic.6). Menu item „Language“ allows you to select appropriate language. An finally, „About product“ will show current version of the DontForget you use. Most important menu item is located in the left menu and called „Apply and exit“. By this, all settings made in the Admin will be saved, Admin will be closed and the main application DontForget.exe will be executed automatically and DontForget becomes active.

Generally speaking• With respect to CPU load optimalization and in order to minimize power requirements and forcefully for bigger battery holding time are all events, conditions, detections and checks taken in ca. 30 seconds intervals. Hence you can note a small time shift between the time set and reality e.g. deactivation is performed 22:30.21 and not exactly 22:30.00.

HEX Mobile has theese features/limitations/bugs:THEORETICALY file size is limited up to 2'147'483'646 bytes (2.1Gb) :)Amount of unsaved editings is limited by your free RAM amountIn this version, if you want to append several bytes to a file, you have to immediatly write theese bytes in file (br) When in a "save files as" dialog, you should first choose the directory, then you can click on any file to overwrite it or press * to enter a new filenameWhen creating a new file, you have to save it firstOpening files from command is not supported yet!If you see some interface elements are greyed (disabled), it means that this feature is not implemented yetUndo work only relatively the original value of the byte. Example: you have original value 0xFF, you edit it and write 0xF0, then you edited it once again and write 0x0A. Then you press UNDO and you'll have value 0xFF.Jumping to offset is little buggy yet...

It is written in C# and needs .NET Compact Framework 2.0 to be installed on your device! Note that you can install .NET CF 2.0 only on Windows Mobile 5 smartphones!!!This is the first version and I can't guarantee normal work if you have changed system fonts to any other!Supported screen resolution: 176x220, QVGA

Another freeware app from GPCarreon.Purpose: hard reset Smartphone using 1 button click. File is independent of Clear Storage utility which comes only to Orange handsets.

HARD RESET INFO:A hard reset process will revert Smartphone settings back to factory default. All informations stored on the phone’s internal memory (\Storage) will be erased. To cite few examples…System settings, Inbox messages, phonebook entries, homescreens, programs installed, registry keys/ tweaks, etc. You may need to backup contacts and other important files before a doing a hard reset.

A network-unlocked phone (openline) will remain network-unlocked after a hard reset. An application-unlocked phone will not retain its unlocked/ decertified state though.

There are several ways to do a hard reset. The conventional way is through hardware/button combinations ak.a. the manual method. Another way is using a standalone file. Orange handsets for instance are pre-installed with a ‘Clear Storage’ utility. You can also use PC-based utilities able to hard reset the Smartphone.

Alarm Info is designed to give you the ability to see the system alarm status on the homescreen. Being a standard homescreen plugin, you are able to scroll to it, click on it, and then set the alarm to the time desired. The alarm information is all that is entered, so it is a fast and easy process to set the alarm. Instructions on how to install the plugin are provided with the plugin.

Features:

* WM5 version included in zip file * Uses theme colors to display alarm * Quick and easy alarm setting by simply clicking on plugin * Control of text and spacing provided in plugin setup

Using this application you can switch between running applications and/or close them. Switch is a task-switcher without unnecessary overhead. So it's simple, fast and just does its job. The Pocket PC edition also supports Landscape mode now.

Switch does not occupy the entire taskbar like other applications of this genre do. So you can continue using other applications (e.g. TaskbarDate) which do something on the taskbar.

Since version 1.25 Switch is also optimized for WM2005 devices. At the moment Switch can be used on the following platforms: Palm-sized PC, PPC2002, WM2003 and WM2005. Switch may also works on PPC2000 but who is still using it?

I'd like to thank Kees Bakelaar who has contributed to the Dutch translation of Switch!

Features:

* Integrates into the standard Windows CE taskbar * Show desk (displays today screen; the name can be changed using tweaks) * Close current (closes the application which is currently on top) * Close all (closes all running applications) * Close all but current (closes all running application but not the application which is currently on top) * Plug-Ins * Ignore (ignore configured application names)

Using CCrryyppttoo you can encrypt and of course decrypt confidential files. But don't forget your passwords!

I have been looking for an encryption/decryption utility for a long time... Of course I found some interesting applications (freeware and commercial) but there was no one that was really good and free/convenient. I also found commercial encrypting software but that one I've found has caused some problems (very often I had to do a soft-reset in order to turn on my Pocket PC). Another application was not able to decrypt a file on a storage card after the software was reinstalled (e.g. when the Pocket PC suffered from a hard-reset and this even I knew the passwords!)

After that experiences I decided to develop my own encrypting/decrypting utility in order to protect my files especially those which are stored on a storage card like SD and CF cards.

Voyager is a file explorer for Pocket PC's with some additional features than the standard file explorer.

Voyager is based on .NET technology. So you need to install the .NET Compact Framework (CF) if you are not using Windows Mobile 2003 (WM2003) or later. Newer devices have the CF framework already installed and you just need to install Voyager. Voyager 3.0 works with PPC2002, WM2003 and WM2005!

Allow people with a camera phone to publish on internet, on the fly, (with 3G or GRPS) their photos or videos (with optional comments) without any HTML or web knowledge.

Currently the application publishes a mini website and updates it each time you take a new picture or video. This means that you need a personal web site but you don’t need any HTML knowledge. Average time depends on the network : for example with 3G, it needs 15 seconds to upload a picture and update web site. The only thing you need to do to make it works it's to set up FTP connection on the settings page. You need to provide the directory where the web site will be uploaded (like www/mypic ). This directory must exist ! If your web site supports PHP you can check option called PHP support, transfer will be faster.

You can switch between connectable and disabled by simply pressing the icon in the tray bar.When you tap'n'hold the icon a menu apears that lets you set the mode you like, and lets you exit the program.

OPClip is a shared, multi-platform clipboard. t is very easy to use but provides a useful tool for everyday work on the PC or PDA.Basicly, you can copy text snippets from the clipboard of a pc or pda to the clipboard of another pc/pda. To exchange information, OPClip uses a file, whose location and name can be customized and of which you can have many. These files can be located on a network shared forlder, in the pocketpc folder on your PC or in any other place accessible by the devices you intend to use the program on. You can even use the program on a single device, providing just an added clipboard.

Usage:OPClip has two main commands: copy and paste. This two command are accessible on the menu and as hotkeys on the windows version. On the pda version, the are accessible also on the menu button bar. What these two command do is simply copying the contenct of the clipboard of the device you are using to and from the shared clipboard. For example, suppose you are sharing a clipboard file between your pc and your pda. To put a snippet of text form the pc to the pda, copy it on the clipboard of your pc as usual, then paste it into the shared clipboard by hitting CONTROL-SHIFT-V (the default hotkey for paste on OPClip). Now the snippet of text is copied to the shared clipbord. Go to your pda and click on the copy button to have the shared content copied to your local clipboard of the pda. Now you can paste the content as usual on your pocketpc.

OPTasks is a Task list (or Todo list) for PocketPC. It is compatible with the windows mobile bundled software (pocket outlook), but it is different because:

* It is more flexible * It is designed to have the most used functions only a click away * The task list can hold more tasks in a single screen because of smaller font * Same for categories, and the list is scrollable * Icons on the menu bar, double click, no slow tap-and-hold and other nasty things like that * Keyboard shortcuts for fast navigation * Four filters to control task list contents

Planned features include import/export functionalities, advanced clipboard support, configuration and personalization, templates, cosmetic improuvements and others. I'm also looking for someone to develop the smartphone port.OPTasks is offered to you as freeware. See the application's about box for more info.

RemapSoftkeys allows to modify the softkey allocation on the Today screen.It only modifies registry entries, so you don't need to keep it installed after you set your new values... - Mort

The ZIP file contain the PPC executeable, i.e. you have to copy the contained file to the PPC and execute it there. For NewTray, it'd be usefull to create a shortcut in the startup folder. To do this, run the file explorer on your PPC, tap&hold on NewTray.exe, select Copy, then go to \Windows\Startup (or localized name, e.g. \Windows\Autostart for German Windows), right softkey, Edit > Paste shortcut.

NewTray adds a menu with all "New" entries (like the New menu in PPC2000 to WM2003SE) to the system tray.The icon's a small yellow star...(Sadly, not all entries work fine on all devices, since WM5 has no native New menu, nobody seems to check them. For example, new message doesn't work on P525...) - MORT

I'm pleased to announce that I have today released the full nag-free version of CABviaActiveSync free of charge, previously only available to MoDaCo Plus members. - Paul of MODACO

So how does it work?

- CvAS installs on your desktop PC, and adds a right-click context menu for CAB files- When you click the menu, the CAB is automatically parsed, copied to your ActiveSync directory, and a regular ActiveSync install is initiated- When the install is complete, the CAB file stays in the ActiveSync directory, meaning you can un/reinstall in future, without having to archive the CAB away somewhere.
